Mental Health and Depression Support

Depression

Depression is more than just feeling sad for a few days. It is a serious medical condition that negatively affects how you feel, the way you think, and how you act.

Persistent Sadness

Feeling "empty," hopeless, or tearful for most of the day, nearly every day.

Loss of Interest

No longer finding pleasure in hobbies, social activities, or daily life (Anhedonia).

Fatigue

Extreme tiredness, low energy, or feeling like even small tasks take huge effort.

Numbness

Feeling emotionally flat, disconnected from others, or unable to care about outcomes.

Types of Depression We Treat

Depression manifests differently in everyone. Common types include:

Major Depression

Severe symptoms that interfere with your ability to work, sleep, study, eat, and enjoy life.

Persistent (Dysthymia)

A depressed mood that lasts for at least two years. It may be less severe but is long-lasting.

Postpartum

Major depression that occurs during pregnancy or after childbirth, far beyond the "baby blues."

SAD (Seasonal)

Depression that comes and goes with the seasons, typically starting in late fall and early winter.

Common Symptoms Checklist

If you experience these signs for more than two weeks, seek professional help.

Sleep Changes

Insomnia (unable to sleep) or Hypersomnia (sleeping too much/not wanting to get out of bed).

Appetite Changes

Significant weight loss or gain unrelated to dieting, due to overeating or loss of hunger.

Worthlessness

Excessive feelings of guilt, self-blame, or feeling like you are a burden to others.

Concentration Issues

"Brain fog," trouble making decisions, or difficulty focusing on work or reading.

Unexplained Aches

Physical symptoms like headaches, back pain, or stomach issues without clear medical cause.

Dark Thoughts

Recurring thoughts of death, suicide, or feeling like the world would be better off without you.

Our Treatment Approach

Depression is highly treatable with the right combination of therapies.

1. Psychotherapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Talk Therapy to identify negative thinking patterns and build coping skills.

2. Medication

Antidepressants (like SSRIs) can help balance brain chemistry. We monitor these closely for effectiveness.

3. Lifestyle & Support

Building a routine, regular exercise, and connecting with support groups to reduce isolation and improve mood.
